The bill of exceptions in the fight for a new trial for Leo M. Frank was filed with the Supre- me Court today.

By a vote of 138 to 120, the house today concur red in the senate amendment to the legislative bill authorizing the purchase of automobiles for the vice-president and speaker at a cost of $4,500 each. Twice before this week the house re fused to vote for the automobiles, but friends of the two presiding officers rallied their forces today and brought a sufficient number of members into line to" put the amendment through. Republican Leader Mann strongly urged that automobiles be provided for the use of the vice-president and the speaker. He paid a tribute to Speaker Clark. Mr. Mann recalled that two years ago the' Democrats were assembl ing in Baltimore to nominate a presi dential candidate. He pointed out that on nine ballots Champ Clark polled a majority of the delegates. "Under every other circumstance," said Mr. Mann, 'except the rule of the Democratic convention, that majority would have nominated Mr. Clark, and if nominated he would have been elected. I do not propose to draw comparison between the speaker and the president for both of whom I entertain profound respect, but itls fair to say that if Champ Clark had been nominated and elected president, we would have all been proud of him in that position. 'This house made what reparation it could by re electing Mr. Clark speaker." Mr. Mann added that Mr.tTlark was " great speaker and presides with im partial fairness." ; ,trj FIRST DRINKS SERVED FROM I Vh NEW FOUNTAIN j The first drinks were served . last ; night from the new fountain that has street store, Mr. WarMxu mill ' Ixm I , - - , " , l' assisted by Robert Nixon, Jr. BAPTIST OHPHANAGE IS IN FINE SHAPE BOARD OF TRUSTEES HOLDS ANNUAL MEETING AT THOMASYTLLE J. C. Wliitty, who is a member of the Board of Trustees of the Baptist Orphanage at Thomasville, has just returned from the annual meeting of this Board. A more important meeting of the board has not been held in a decade than the meeting of this year. The Kenedy Home is ready to receive inmates, and the Orphanage is about to start in its dual capacity. This will involve changes in the policy of the institution and adjustments in methods and management of the Orphanage is committed. The reports that have been sub mitted are the best in the history of the institution. More than $94,- 000 passed through the hands of the treasurer, during the year. The cur rent funds was over $4J,()00. $4,000 more than that of last year. The cost of maintainim: the Orohanaire last year was $8.97 per capita a month. fhis includes not only the food and rai ment of the children but all the run ning expenses of the institution. The general manager, Rev. M. L. Kesler, has borne a tremendous burden ai. through the year, and has done the work of two or three men but he has done his work well. Charity and Children, including the business of the print shop on a whole, shows a net profit for the year ot $5,700. I he circulation of the paper is now about 18,000, cover ing the State from the mountains to sea. The farm shows a profit of more than $6,000, which is unprecedented I tors to this city : Mr. J. 1 .

There are 430 children in the Orphanage and this number will soon be increased to 500. This will necessitate the increase of the current fund to at least $50,000 next year. . New Hern Man May Be Selected E. FOY MAY MAKE RACE AS STATE SENATOR FROM THIS DISTRICT The suggestion that C. E. Foy of New Bern be named as State Senator in place of Hon. Frank Thompson of Onslow county who received the nomi nation at a recent primary but has declined to accept on the grounds that he cannot attend to his work in the Senate and also give his law business the proper attention, has met with pretty general approval locally. Mr. Foy is well and favorably known all over this part of the State and is known to be a gentleman of great ability and of high character. Whether he would accept the nomination is a matter of speculation as he has not yet been ap proached on the subject, but there is every reason to believe thit he would agree to such action should the Demo crats of this district care to honor him with it. Some candidate must soon be secured to fill the vacancy made by Mr. Thompson's refusal to accept and this will probably be done within a week or two. -COMPROMISE PLAN TO 1 IMPROVE BEAUFORT HARBOR WASHINGTON, D.

L NOT CARRY Advanced Steps Taken in Interest of South. CUTS THE COLONISTS RATE In the Future No Inducement Will Be Offered to Take Peo ple Away From Home. C H ARLOTTE, July 4. Keenly alive to the advantages of the section of the I'nited States which it penetrates with its lines, the Southern Railway has announced through its various offices that the sale of colonists' tickets to the Northwest will in the future be dis- ontinued. This is a step which is taken to indicate that this railway through its energetic boosters and ad vertisers of the resources of the South intends to shut off at least' one probable leak that is costing this section of the ountry an inestimable sum of money. It is regarded as an important step by the factors that are trying to build up this part of the State and seeking to ind ite immigrants of a kind that then are abundant ODDortumties here fnr their energies and resources. At the same time the Southern aims to by this method cut off in a silent way any exod us of farmesr or any other class f people from North Carolina to the Northwest and while there has been no great number of these within thaM no great number of these within re cent years from this immediate section, other parts of North Carolina have suffered from such a going out. Colonists' Rates. President Harrison has announced nd ordered that his word go out from the various central offices of the South ern in North Carolina that in the future there will be no sale of colonists' tickets. As yet there is no concerted action on the part of all the railroads penetrating . the South to cut out the alluring features but the head of the Southern has de termined to take this course whether : the others do or not. For the past ten years these colonists' tickets have been effective from March IS to April 15 and from September 16 'to October IS. It is known that during this time, rep- ', resentatives of -big Western railroads have visited the South and have come , into North Carolina, even into this section, with alluring literature por traying the unparalled advantages of the Northwest as an agricultural Id. According to the Asheville CitI- : zen, last March, 26 representatives of J I other roads made extended visits to Western North Carolina, called on the farmers of the different counties of this section of the State and induced many f them to 'go west". They made their ' headquarters at this city and left nothing undone to induce farmers and stock raisers to investigate the advan tages of the States traversed by their lines and their efforts were not without : success. Taking advantage of the low rates from Asheville to the different ' Northwestern States, scores of the peo ple of the Western part of North Caro lina have gone to far away States to spend the remainder of their lives. Had Lost Hope. Considerable opposition has devel oped here to the colonists' rates and the action ' of the various railroads - sending their best men to Western North Carolina to induce the farmers and stockraiscrs to dispose of their - holdings here and cast their lots among . strangers in an unknown land. However has been generally realized that circumstances were such as to make it necessary that the Southern meet the competition of other lines and those who had entertained hope of getting the colonists' rates rescinded had about arrived at the conclusion - that there was no remedy for the ex isting conditions. They are therefore, totally unprepared for the announce - ment of, President Harrison and the announcement that he has decided that the ' Southern 7 shall discontinue putting the tickets :' on sale at the low rates will come as unexpect ed information here. L, . ' . Through its land ' and ' Industrial department the Southern is making great effort to attract the attention of farmers and stockratser of other sections and to get them to Investigate the possibilities offered along its lines. Large appropriations have been made for advertising and many of the repre sentatives of this department are kept on the road all the time presenting the claims of the Southern States to the farmers of other sections, of the country. Heretofore, tnis wortc nas oeen on set to a certain extent by reason of the fact that many of those attracted to the land lying In the Southern's territory have come South only to take the places of those who been led to invest In Northwestern.
